Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was on the development of a lesson study program based on teaching physical movements as one of the contents of Jiritsu-Katsudo. This lesson study program is designed with reference to decision-making theory while conducting literature research and surveys to understand the current state of Jiritsu-Katsudo teaching, and is conducted face-to-face by fellow teachers and external experts with expertise while working closely with younger teachers.
Younger teachers, fellow teachers with specialized skills, and external experts were able to share the sensation of the students' bodies moving, and were able to guide them to lesson improvement by advising on measures to deal with discrepancies that occurred between the plan and the implementation of the lesson.
